I'm not sure how far we should trust it - my gut feeling says this will
expose other problems. In my opinion it should be mentioned but let's
not rush anywhere without some thorough testing, after all this isn't
really a lifesaver. Mesh without it works more or less, quirks and
workarounds are pretty well known. With it - who knows. Works for me but
that doesn't mean anything.
have fun
Michael
